Correct Brake Bleed Order??
Having had some issues with my Passat brakes, I managed to (sadly) break one of the pipes which goes under the rear 'subframe' area so have ordered a new one. It's arrived, but all my brake fluid has managed to drain itself out of the pipe overnight, so I need to make sure I properly bleed the brake system. Despite a good search, I've not managed to find a definitive guide or brake bleed order - one thread I've read says RR, RL, FR, FL and another says FL, FR, RL, RR. As it's the rear, and working on some fluid staying in the 'other' pipes due to a vacuum, I'm hoping I'll only need to bleed the rears but am fully prepared to have to bleed the lot. Any 'gospels' for bleeding on a B5.5 (2003) PD130 please?
